2 Peter 3:1-18
A pastor visited an older man. The Pastor said, ''At your age you should be thinking about the hereafter.'' The older man replied, ''Oh, I do all the time. No matter where I am - in the living room, upstairs, in the kitchen, or down in the basement - I ask myself 'What am I here after?'''

He can quote the entire Bible, and he specializes on future events. I still remember hearing him preach the last time he came to the Greensboro coliseum. He told how the Lord was coming back to rapture the church to ...
